Trump gives Iran days to end power struggle, return to peace talks

President Trump is giving Iran's warring factions a short window to unify behind a coherent counter-offer — or the ceasefire he extended Tuesday ends, three U.S. officials tell Axios.

"Trump is willing to give another three to five days of ceasefire to allow Iran time to address the situation," one U.S. source briefed on the matter said. "It is not going to be open-ended."

Trump's negotiators believe a deal to end the war and address what's left of Iran's nuclear program is still achievable. But they also worry they may not have anyone in Tehran empowered to say yes.
